What game are you playing in your relationship? How can hypnotherapy help you to change? Each school of therapy has its strengths, its uses and its weaknesses.

Help!? How do I choose a hypnotherapist in Reading, Thame, Wallingford or Oxford? I spent some time, this afternoon, looking at hypnotherapy websites. I was struck by how confusing it all must seem to somebody seeking help. There are “Advanced Hypnotherapists,” “Curative Hypnotherapists” and hypnotherapists of a thousand other hues. How is anybody supposed to…
Don’t take it out on others. Own it. Freud is commonly dismissed these days as being overly keen to ascribe sexual drives to human behaviours.

Empty Nest Syndrome is a difficult time for women – no matter when it begins. It’s that time of year when thousands of mothers will be sending their four and five year old children to school for the very first time. Tears will be shed on both sides. It’s the end of a life-stage…
Hypnotherapy could help you overcome stress and anxiety I remember, as a child, when I played a game of doubles’ tennis with my father, one of his friends and this friend’s son – who I didn’t really know very well. There came a point in proceedings where my mother and the mother/wife of the other…
Don’t be a money machine to those who thrive on divorce. Are your own issues threatening your relationship? I was following a bus recently and was saddened to see an advert on the back which read: ‘Thinking of divorce? Contact so and so solicitors, family law specialists.’ There is always a ready supply of…
You are strong enough to do more than cope. Hypnotherapy could show you how! Many of my clients in Reading, Thame, Wallingford and Oxford tell me how pathetic they are. They tell me how weak they feel, how they sense themselves to be victims of their past or present situations. They’re like corks bobbing about…

Taking care of yourself with Resolved! Hypnotherapy: Reading, Thame, Wallingford, Oxford I’d like you to begin by watching this short video about Penguins: What can we learn from this video? If all of the penguins had been determined to scramble for warmth then none of them would had found it and all would have…
As they say in the adverts – ‘you’re worth it!’ If only people could be kinder to themselves. We tend to be quick to criticise our actions, thoughts and feelings. We’re far less willing to praise ourselves for our stronger qualities and attributes, or to allow others to do the same. We find it…

Hypnotherapy and Mindfulness are awesome when combined. Here’s why! How often do we slip into patterns of daydreaming about the future, imagining how we’d like it to be and wishing that we could make it happen? How often do we slip back into the past, replaying scenes of yesteryear and wishing we’d made different choices? …
Mindfulness and hypnotherapy are perfect partners Ah, perfect partners. You know: those perfectly attuned couples who finish each other’s sentences, know what the other person needs, wants, thinks and feels. They appear to be two pieces of a puzzle which fit so perfectly together that sometimes it’s hard to see the join. We’ve all known…
If hypnotherapy is enough for you it’s good enough for Adele I don’t usually comment on celebrities and the like choosing to use hypnotherapy. I’m glad that they do, of course, and wish them well but their opinions aren’t truly a good reason for anybody else to follow in their footsteps. Homer Simpson, in my…
